Ukraine’s Deputy Foreign Minister Vasyl Bodnar met with French Ambassador to Ukraine Etienne de Poncins to discuss preparations for the French President’s visit to Ukraine, the press service of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has reported on Facebook.

“During the meeting of Deputy Foreign Minister Vasyl Bodnar with French Ambassador to Ukraine Etienne de Poncins, they discussed key elements of the bilateral dialogue in 2020. The main priority is the preparation of the official visit of French President Emmanuel Macron to Ukraine,” the statement reads.

Visit after visit, yet clear support for Ukraine is not in sight. When in Kyiv – they condemn the russian aggression, only to demand lifting sanctions on Russia and normalization of relations once they’re back home…

That is the French for you in a nutshell. That slippery fuck is unfortunately highly representative of the Frog mentality. Unreliable, devious and treacherous, but masked with the kissy kissy Gallic charm.
